Chapter 311: The Parchment Scroll (Part II)

At this time, Sampo was nearly eighty years old, although he was still in good health, but he had no intention of taking care of the world's mundane affairs, and after passing on the presiding position to the eldest disciple, he came to live alone under the tower of the gods that had been enshrined as a holy place, and in addition to chanting sutras and worshipping the Buddha every day, it was to delve into the mysteries of the power of the gods.

After several years of study, he finally figured out that the so-called power of the gods actually came from a heart-shaped gem embedded in the spire, and the energy emitted from that gem was the source of their master and apprentice's strength. Sampo called the gem the "Heart of the Celestials", and if the energy in it could be borrowed, it would release an unparalleled power comparable to that of the Celestials.

At this time, his disciples and thousands of monks in the temple have slowly become corrupt and degenerate because they have been in high positions for a long time, their status is respected, and they have enjoyed the prosperity of the world under the support of many believers. Later, it even developed into bullying men and women, obscene Buddhist halls, colluding with the government, and fish and meat villages, like local tyrants and bullies, and the people dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. And all this, Sambo, who lives alone in the holy land, is completely kept in the dark and unaware.

Finally, one day, the gods became angry, the earth shook, the heavens collapsed, the temple collapsed, the only way to the earth collapsed, and the monks fled in fear to their holy place, the Tenjin Tower! I hope to be blessed by the gods.

But the gods seemed to be really about to give up on them, and on the way to the tower of the gods, countless flea-like monsters suddenly appeared in the originally beautiful and quiet cave, which looked like countless times magnified, and launched a frenzied attack on them, and nearly half of the monks died in the mouths of these monsters. Every time those monsters catch someone. will all rush up. Divide and eat the prey. There weren't even bones left, and then he pounced on the next person.

It was precisely because of this habit of the monster that the monks were given a chance to escape, and more than half of them took the opportunity to escape into the holy land. The monsters seemed to be afraid of the Holy Land, and did not chase into the Holy Land, but they were unwilling to scream in the Yongdao for a long time, and finally slowly dispersed.

When Sampo learned of the situation outside, he thought that someone must have done evil to anger the gods. Then he asked the people to plead sincerely to the gods and ask for forgiveness from the gods. No matter how evil the monks did outside, they still feared the gods and Buddhas in their hearts, and they did not dare to hide anything in this situation, and in their confessions, they confessed all the crimes they committed outside.

When Sampo learned that his disciples had degenerated into this, and that the temple he had founded had become a den of robbers, he couldn't help but be furious and furious. It's just that the mistake has been made, and disaster is coming at this moment, not to mention that thousands of monks have a share. Sampo also had nothing to do with them, so he could only make them bow down in the face of the "heart of the gods". At the same time, he repented sincerely in his heart in order to ask for forgiveness from the gods.

The law does not blame the public, but the first evil must be punished! Enraged, Sampo ordered his dozen or so personal disciples to follow him to the altar, ready to use the power of the "Heart of the Heavenly Gods" to measure and abolish their ability to do evil. First, it is to seek the forgiveness of the gods, and secondly, it is also necessary to abolish their bodies, so that they can devotively worship the Buddha in the future and atone for their sins.

I have to say that this Sampo is really good to the disciples, after all, the master-apprentice relationship for decades is there, and the feelings are quite deep. Therefore, even though he was angry, Sampo only wanted to abolish the abilities of his disciples so that they could return to the right path with devotion to the Buddha, and he did not mean to take their lives.

It's just that Sampo didn't expect it, but his disciples didn't think so. After so many years of rich and extravagant life, they have been completely corrupted, and it is the magical and powerful ability that makes them live this life, and now Sampo is suddenly going to abolish this ability of theirs, which is really more painful than killing them.

Especially at this time, everyone is sealed underground, which can be said to be in a place of death, but with the ability of this body, and thousands of monks, it may not be impossible to dig a passage to the ground and escape. Even if others can't escape in the end, there is still some hope if a dozen of them join forces.

Originally, Sampo lived in seclusion in the holy land, not asking about the world, but these dozen or so personal disciples were still very dedicated to serving, taking turns to accompany them every day, shouting about the cold and asking for warmth, but also filial piety, and the master and apprentice got along well. But at this time of life and death, life is at stake, Sampo still cares about the friendship between master and apprentice, but these disciples have left it behind, and they look at each other, and they are evil to the side of the guts, and they actually take advantage of Sambo's defense, and suddenly move together, attack with all their might, and vow to kill Sambo.

Sang Bo never dreamed that the disciples who had been in love with father and son for decades would actually do this to him, and he was caught off guard, and he suffered more than a dozen fatal blows, if it weren't for the energy he was borrowing from the "Heart of the Heavenly Gods" at that time, he would definitely die on the spot.

Despite this, Sampo was still seriously injured enough to be fatal, and it was only a matter of survival. If it was just that, it would be enough, but at that time, Sampo was preparing to abolish the ability of his disciples with the help of the energy of the "Heart of the Gods", and he was suddenly unable to control the output of the energy in the "Heart of the Gods" under the sudden attack and serious injury, and the majestic power of the gods poured out, not only the dozen or so disciples died on the spot, but the thousands of monks who were kneeling and praying in the square were also affected, and they lost their lives silently.

Seeing this, Sampo repented and believed that it was his negligence in disciplining his disciples that caused them to become corrupt and degenerate, and to do evil, which led to the punishment of the gods for them. With this in mind, Sampo struggled to write down the contents of the sheepskin, and then sat cross-legged and passed away.

At the end of the sheepskin, Sampot wrote: If anyone in the future sees this sheepskin and obtains the "heart of the gods", he must learn from himself, be pious and good all his life, and never do evil, otherwise he will bear the wrath of the gods, remember, remember!

The contents of the sheepskin ended here, and everyone listened to it with a sigh, and finally solved the mystery of the underground temple outside and the skeletons everywhere, and it turned out that there was such a legendary story.

However, there are still two mysteries that have not been solved, one is the ancient pagoda in front of him, according to Sambo, when he and his disciples found this place, the ancient pagoda already existed, so who built it and when?

The second mystery is the "Heart of the Gods", what is the "Heart of the Gods" that Sampo said gave their masters and apprentices magical and powerful abilities, and possessed majestic and terrifying energy? It...... Is it still on top of this ancient tower? (To be continued......)
